Topinambur Flowerbud

Or the flower of the Jerusalem artichoke. I'm quite keen on these veggies but I didn't know that they had such pretty flowers.

I would go back and harvest them but given that they are on the side of a path that many people walk their dogs on, perhaps better not.

I liked the way the sun lit the leaves in this - and I was pleased to see the sun given that the weather forecast was for rain and more rain.
